Interview
The interview process at CISCO for the role of Network Engineer involved five comprehensive rounds. It began with a Technical Assessment to evaluate core networking skills and problem-solving abilities. This was followed by a Presentation round, where candidates demonstrated their understanding of networking concepts and their ability to communicate effectively. The next stage was a Technical Interview, which delved deeper into specific technical knowledge and experience. Finally, the Manager Round assessed overall fit, leadership potential, and alignment with CISCO’s values and team dynamics.
